- Judicial review Procedure

They may see their personal and pecuniary responsibility brought into play by the accounts judge. This procedure leads to judgements acts that allow revenue recovery from the Accountant or repayment of wrongly paid amounts, which can be significant. In case of delay in the accounts production, the Bench can also impose a fine on the public accountant.

- Management review Procedure

The Audit Bench reviews the management of public organisations and administrations, local authorities, public entities and public and semi-public companies, in accordance with law n° 2018/012.
